The aim of textile-to-textile recycling is that eventually the fibres and textiles used in clothing will be able to be used repeatedly and for much longer, dramatically reducing the need to create new clothes from virgin resources. This is why it is useful to understand what companies are doing to invest in the development of these technologies and move towards a more circular system of production.

A note on the scoring system

Wikirate has a standardised 10-point scoring system making it possible to compare company scores across different benchmarks. On Wikirate.org, the Fashion Transparency Index scoring system, where each company can get a maximum of 250 points, has been converted to the 10-point scoring system - with 10 being the highest a company can score and 0 being the lowest. These company scores can also be translated to percentages e.g. if a company has scored 2.5 out of 10 on Wikirate, they have achieved 25% of the 250 points in the Fashion Transparency Index.
